Senior Product Engineer / Product Owner

About DQC

At DQC, we’re building agentic data quality software that fundamentally improves how organizations build and operate data systems. We are a fast‑growing startup founded in 2022, headquartered in Munich, and remote‑friendly. The DQC Platform sits at the intersection of backend systems, modern data stacks, and LLM‑driven workflows. We are moving toward a future where the distance between specification and production code is bridged by AI. As a Product Engineer at DQC, you won't just build the platform; you will pioneer the agentic workflows that build the platform itself.

In This Role, You Can Expect To

• Bridge the Gap: Act as the primary interface between product vision and technical execution, translating customer needs into agentic system designs.
• Drive Agentic Workflows: Lead our transition toward an automated "spec -> code" development cycle using advanced AI coding agents.
• Own the Outcome: Own the full lifecycle of feature development, focusing on the "Why" and "What" as much as the "How."
• Architect Intelligence: Design and maintain backend systems that empower LLMs to perform complex data quality and improvement tasks autonomously.

You’re a Great Addition If You

• Think Like a Founder: You take extreme ownership of the product roadmap and the user experience, not just the ticket backlog.
• Are an AI Native: You don't just use LLMs; you are actively exploring the frontier of agentic workflows and automated software engineering.
• Strive for "Self-Healing" Systems: You prefer building systems that can identify and fix data issues over manual oversight.
• Communicate with Precision: You can explain complex technical trade‑offs to stakeholders and write "prompt-ready" specifications.
• Value Velocity: You are motivated by the chance to shape both the product and the engineering culture in a high‑speed startup.

You Should Apply If You Have

• 5+ years of professional experience delivering production‑grade systems, with a strong emphasis on product‑led development.
• Technical Roots: experience with technical specs (you must be able to "speak" the specs, even as agents write the code).
• Agentic Expertise: Proven experience using and advancing agentic workflows (e.g., LangChain, AutoGPT, or custom agent frameworks) in a professional or intensive personal capacity.
• Data Fluency: Strong experience with databases/data‑warehouses or core data systems and the ability to navigate modern data stacks.
• Decision‑Making Mojo: A track record of making high‑stakes product decisions that balance immediate product needs with long‑term scalability.
• Fluent English: Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Requirement: A valid EU work permit.

(Plus) Skills We Value

• Hands‑on experience with the latest LLM models (Claude 4.6 Opus, GPT‑5.3 codex, Kimi K2.5).
• Experience in a fast‑paced startup environment where roles are fluid.

What We Offer

• Future‑Proof Role: A chance to be at the forefront of the agentic software revolution.
• Ownership: Above‑market compensation and a virtual share program (VSOP).
• Growth: A steep learning curve in a fast‑growing AI startup with short decision paths.
• Environment: State‑of‑the‑art office in Munich and a genuine, highly motivated startup culture.
• Perks: EGYM Wellpass, team events, and top‑tier equipment.
